Desperately wanted this vase, my first post on the GMB referred to a bowl i thought was Monart,
http://www.glassmessages.com/index.php/topic,7853.0.htmlfound out its called Cellophane glass, and origin is in doubt, Bohemia? Stourbridge? or ??
The original bowl sits on my Mums window sill, a Xmas Pressie, and is admired by all visitors,
so i saw this vase, identical pattern, and want it for my shelf!
Cant see the shape on Franks page, (although must come from the same origin as many of the photos)
http://www.ysartglass.com/Ysart/NotYsart.htmhoping this may be another clue to origins.
Very Thick and heavy 2.8kg! 8 1/8" tall, rim 5 3/4"base 3 5/8" polished pontil mark 1 5/8"
On both bowl and vase, years of age wear to base, confident its circa 1930s,
no doubts that it was made by a Quality Glassmaker!
Frank, does it help, would you like photos?
All suggestions welcome
Andy
